This will have to be quick, as I really should be getting lunch... tuna melts today and my stomach can't wait!!
After the summer hiatus from this thing, I am ready to be back. I really didn't want this blog to be negative and really had to deal with a bit of an attitude problem on my part before I could really be positive.
This summer has been really, really good and really, really horrid.
I have a wonderful new son who is a blessing to all of us... and when I have friends over I only get to see him to feed him... thankfully I'm nursing him!
The gross thing is off my finger!!! YEAH! The stitches have finally dissolved and I'm sure the feeling in it will right itself in time.
My husband has decided he no longer wants to be a husband to me or a good Daddy for his kids. I have found out there have been MAJOR problems that I was unaware of and feel rather like an idiot about that BUT its ok. God is in control of the situation and He knows what I can handle and what I need.
In fact, I am in the process of buying a new house... new to me at least. Its 30 years old, 1500 sq ft, 3 big bedrooms, living room is 19 by 19.5 feet, all new wiring, plumbing, insulation and decks... and its $35000. Yep, it will be paid off in 2 years!!
Tomorrow we go to paint. A few good friends are coming to help. The paint is in the van, ready to go. Caitlyn and her friend Daniella are coming too. They will paint A LITTLE, just to make them happy. They will really be taking care of the baby so I can really paint up a storm.
The stroller is also in the van so I don't forget.
My fridge went on sale yesterday for $800 off. Mom found that out a few days ago. It has now been ordered and will come the 3rd of Oct. My new phone has been ordered as well.
The kids are doing school very well. They are zipping through the work. We are finishing up from last year as the end of the year/summer was shot for schoolwork. They are looking forward to starting their new work... At least some of them are!!!
Caitlyn is off to get milk and eggs. Justin is crying for her. They have a connection. He actually stinks so I should go change him.
If anyone wants to help paint tomorrow....

I'd help paint if I could. :) So glad that you have good news. The house really sounds great. We're still praying for you all.
Glad to hear from you again!
Wish we could be there to lend a hand as well. After painting my parents' house, I should be expert, my dad was really picky *grin*. Glad to hear the new little addition is doing well. God bless.

Congrats on the new little guy!
I think you're pretty amazing and I don't even know you :)
Amazing I definitely am not!! Thanks though. I am tired, and not so fresh at the moment. I'm in love with my new living room... its huge!! The paint job looks even better now that the trim is up and some furniture is in.
Hoping to meet up with all of you if we ever get through this circus!!
